The one thing I regretted since joining this community.

Post by MiyaDV » Tue Mar 08, 2022 10:26 am

sup, I actually joined in 2003 on another account but it had all naruto amvs and I decided to start over lol, regardless of that I've only ever had one AMV friend I met online on another forum.

We both had fun together making amvs, but we were trolls, so I just trolled mostly instead of making connections on. I mean it was worth it somewhat because there was some epic le trolls on KOOPiskeva and some alt accounts that turned into some funny topics. I met with jaddziadax breifly on discord once and she told me koop and you other guys use to laugh like crazy at the koop trolls I did lol
but yeah I seen you guys throughout the years on MEPs and going to meetups at AMV cons, and made friends on IRC/MSN chats or w/e, there use to be some chatroom I forgot what it was. I always stayed away from that, just gamed with the few friends I had online. Sadly never tried to integrate with the community or join any projects.

All my friends now grew up and seem to have gotten IRL life's and only get to talk to one of them every now and then now. I don't know how it is for you guys but I wish I participated in the community more and made more friends/joined the chatrooms. I find the current internet very boring with twitter/youtube/etcs and hard to find people to relate to, even on discord. But meh, I had a good time when it was all happening so maybe I'm just being reminiscent. I really miss pre 2012s internet.

The internet was good before social media and stuff caught on. I'm just old now though, so I'm not hip with what the new kids are up to these days.

you know what? You're not wrong. It does streamline everything and make it all so much easier to find but something fun was lost in the process. I guess I'm old too.

While Social Media makes so much easier, it makes it all much harder as well. I came here when I first got started [another account, lost access to the e-mail it was registered under] and found a great group of like minded amazing people to talk to, laugh with, and on occasion cry with as well. People here helped me through the end of my first marriage and how to deal with a cheating spouse, how to move forward.

We don't get that on social media because everything is so out in the open, everyone expects to know everything about each other. for the most part I live a very private life, and what I do online I only open up to a very select group of folks. Maybe its naive but I always feel like forums are a much safer, intimate way to communicate with people.
